Opposite and after said proposition on said ballot shall be printed two squares, one above the other.

Preceding the upper one of said squares shall be printed the word "Yes," and preceding the lower one of said squares shall be printed the word "No"; immediately above said proposition and across the entire width of said ballot shall be printed in pica type the following: "To vote in favor of said proposition make an × in the square after the word 'Yes,' and to vote against said proposition make an × in the square after the word 'No.' " On each of said ballots for the building, improving, remodeling or repairing the buildings on said county farm there shall be printed in brevier and lower-case type, "Shall ________ dollars be raised for improvements?" In all other respects said ballot shall conform with section 3** of chapter 141 of the Session Laws of 1907.

If at such election a majority of those voting on said proposition, or either of them, shall be in favor of the same, then the board of county commissioners of said county is empowered to sell said property or raise said fund, or both, as the case may be.
